The John Player League featuring Nottinghamshire v Derbyshire
Four Nottinghamshire batsmen reached the 1,000-run total last year - captain Clive Rice, Mike Harris, Paul Todd and Derek Randall. Derbyshire will rely this year on the experience of David Steele and captain Geoff Miller to bring out the best in their young players. John Wright and Peter Kirsten are potential match winners.
